Is the bombardation in Lybia another fake war (like Iraq's one) to get oil deposits??
LOL Bombardation hahahaha oh man that should be the next word to be added to the OED...
SE102 said:Not sure. But bombardation is unfortunate.
And Palin didn't even come up with that one... :mrgreen:
Seriously, Libya already sells much of its oil to European countries so what would the point be?
Right... because Ghadaffi massacring the civilians in the east of the country and then reasserting dictatorial control over the country would be SO much better...
why would it be there where already oil deals done with Libya.Regardless of a countries resources we should always support democracy over dictatorship when we are able to do so.
Not sure. But bombardation is unfortunate.
Where is the option "Help Islamists to establish Muslim State in Lybia"?
:lamo Because Gadaffi was clearly an athiest. :roll:
Actually Alfons has a point here, namely that Gadaffi and his regime was for the most part secular, and the US needed his cooperation in keeping the extremists at bay. He was nominally an ally in the fight against extremism until we decided that rebellions are cute.
By secular you mean enforcing Sharia Law? And keeping extremists at bay by funding dozens of Islamic and Communist terrorists across the globe from Indonesia to Palestine to Colombia? He's just as bad as any other North African or Middle Eastern dictator, he merely happened to be friendly to the US, so it was largely ignored.
You're correct. His ideology, to the extent that he even has one, is hard to characterize. But I don't think his regime can truly be characterized as "Islamist," Sharia law or no.
